Message Received

acts as a liaison for the Broken Wheels. When she encounters the
PCs, she delivers Hadrin’s message (below) to the most senior-
looking member of the group. If no character is obviously in
charge, she bluntly asks who is. Once the letter is delivered,
Crumm urges the PC to open the message immediately, as her
employer told her that it was a matter of some importance.
My friends,
At least I hope I can call you friends. I’ have come to learn of your
recent actions from those who benefited from your talents. I can think
of few who could navigate such rough waters and prevail as you have.
I realize we do not yet know each other, but I come to you in my
hour of need and beseech you to hear my call for aid. There are dark
powers at work in this city, and I fear those powers have chosen me
for their unspeakable labors. If you would travel to the establishment

and operator of Coalcutter’s Inn, in fact—in order to garner

them to search for answers.

The Strop Ferry

If the characters choose to take the Strop Ferry to the south
shore, read or paraphrase the following:
A large, strongly built ferry awaits you at the dock with wisps
of coal smoke rising from its stacks. The pilot emerges from the
wheelhouse, his expression one of muted panic, and says, “There’s
not much time. Hadrin is waiting at the old burial ground on the
south shore, in the forest south of the cemetery. I’m supposed to lead
you there. Hurry aboard, before someone sees you!”
The ferry is a large and flat-bottomed, about 48 feet long and

24 feet wide, and sturdy enough to transport heavy laborjacks
to the south shore. The journey south takes only a few minutes.
Bullin Grouse, the captain, pilots the ferry to the westernmost
of the south shore’s three slips, where Hadrin has paid him to
drop the PCs off. Grouse is not interested in interacting with
the characters and claims that distractions from his work could
lead to a grounding upon reaching the south shore.
A Broken Wheel waits for the PCs on the docks, ready to lead Hadrin introduces himself and thanks the PCs for dealing with

a contested Willpower roll against one of the south shore
graveswarms. If the character succeeds, the graveswarm
becomes stationary for one round.
Aftermath
Once Hadrin and the graveswarms are defeated,
any surviving Broken Wheels immediately surrender.
Terrified at the loss of their leader and the destruction of
their undead weapons, these characters willingly submit to
capture or arrest. They will attempt to defend themselves or flee
if attacked, but otherwise are compliant with the PCs’ orders.
Shortly after the battle ends, a group of twelve watchmen

arrive from the nearby village on the south shore, drawn by the
sound of the fight. They demand the PCs explain what is going
on. Despite the unlikely-sounding events, the rune-inscribed
graveswarms are sufficient evidence to convince the watchmen
the characters have performed a service to the city.
Rewards
Following the scenario, once word of the PCs deeds reaches the
high captains, the characters receive a bounty for each Broken
Wheels member they defeated or captured, and an additional
reward if they identify Malvey Crumm.
